The title of this challenge immediately makes me think it had to with a shell alias. Sure enough, when I log in and try to ls , cd, pwd, this damn cow mocks me:
An ascii cow saying "Don't look at me, I'm just here to say moo."
They must be setting shell aliases on common commands. Looking up how to bypass an alias brings me to this page.
command ls shows the directory contents, including flag.txt.
command cat flag.txt shows the flag
Bonus: You can find the aliases set by typing alias
aliases set on shell
